You can’t send a repairman up into space!”

Our job to make sure that our clients never need to! As a Senior Advanced System Engineer, you’ll work on getting cutting-edge technology ready to function in space. The systems you’ll design will be vital to our nation’s fundamental defense. You’ll be working on state-of-the-art technology and tackling some of the most challenging technical obstacles- some of which have never been addressed before. The space industry is continually breaking new barriers with respect to tech, speed and cost. Your job is to imagine, architect, develop and test GDMS systems to ensure the integration of software, hardware, reliability, maintainability, and safety so our solutions do what we say they will and won’t fail in space.

Here's why people find this work exciting:

They want to collaborate and share what they know, which makes working here a mind-expanding experience.
  • Never the Same Thing Twice: The scope of this role is broad and varied. To succeed, you’ll have to speak multiple disciplines of engineering to be able to architect solutions which consider all aspects of the design and constraints.

  • Work Life Balance – It’s still a thing: Yes, we’re directly competing against SpaceX and Blue Origin, so tech design also means meeting ever changing cost and speed constraints. First to market is critical to securing future contracts which means you’ll have to be agile, flexible, innovate constantly and rapidly. However, unlike other players in this space we still respect your weekends – work life balance is still a thing here.

Yes, we got a competitive salary, generous health and personal benefits, flexible work environment and your contributions are recognized and rewarded. But we also have Algorithmic prowess.
